R Markdown Introduction
This is an R Markdown document. The code chunk knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE) is used to setup the document and how it processes these chunks below. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for authoring HTML, PDF, and MS Word documents. For more details on using R Markdown see http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com.
When you click the Knit button a document will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. You need to label your code chunks, and these labels must be unique. You can embed an R code chunk like this:
summary(cars)## speed dist
## Min. : 4.0 Min. : 2.00
## 1st Qu.:12.0 1st Qu.: 26.00
## Median :15.0 Median : 36.00
## Mean :15.4 Mean : 42.98
## 3rd Qu.:19.0 3rd Qu.: 56.00
## Max. :25.0 Max. :120.00The label was cars and was written in the curly braces after r. You can also embed plots, for example:
Note that the echo = FALSE parameter was added to the code chunk to prevent printing of the R code that generated the plot.
The Homework Problems
Below you will find problems for you to complete as an individual. It is fine to discuss the homework problems with classmates, but cheating is prohibited and will be harshly penalized if detected.
1. With the data(pressure) dataset in R, do the following:
#a
? median
#b
head(pressure, n = 10)## temperature pressure
## 1 0 0.0002
## 2 20 0.0012
## 3 40 0.0060
## 4 60 0.0300
## 5 80 0.0900
## 6 100 0.2700
## 7 120 0.7500
## 8 140 1.8500
## 9 160 4.2000
## 10 180 8.8000#c
head(pressure)## temperature pressure
## 1 0 0.0002
## 2 20 0.0012
## 3 40 0.0060
## 4 60 0.0300
## 5 80 0.0900
## 6 100 0.2700#d
#b shows 10 rows but c shows 6 rows.run the command that shows the help page of the median function
show the first 10 rows and 2 columns of the
data(pressure)datasetrun the command
head(pressure)describe the differences between parts b and c.
2. With the data(cars) dataset in R, compute the following:
#a
median(cars$dist)## [1] 36#b
mean(cars$speed)## [1] 15.4#c
summary(cars)## speed dist
## Min. : 4.0 Min. : 2.00
## 1st Qu.:12.0 1st Qu.: 26.00
## Median :15.0 Median : 36.00
## Mean :15.4 Mean : 42.98
## 3rd Qu.:19.0 3rd Qu.: 56.00
## Max. :25.0 Max. :120.00#d
plot(x = cars$speed,
y = cars$dist,
type = "p",
axes = TRUE,
xlab = "speed",
ylab = "distance",
main = "Speed and Stopping Distances of Cars")
the median of the stopping distance
the mean of the speed
the six number summary of both the stopping distance and speed
the plot of the stopping distance (vertical axis) versus the speed (horizontal axis) making sure the axes are written exactly as “distance” and “speed”, while the title as “Speed and Stopping Distances of Cars”.

xequals the sum of all setosa sepal widths, then \(4\cdot(x/2)^3\).
4. Using the Instructor Notes from Week 03, address the following:
#a
set.seed(13) ## set the random seed
x <- rnorm(n = 20) ## generate predictor variable
y <- rnorm(n = 20, mean = x) ## generate response variable plot(y ~ x, pch = 19) ## plot (x,y) pairs
plot(y ~ x, pch = 19)
#b
set.seed(14) ## set the random seed
x <- rnorm(n = 20) ## generate predictor variable
y <- rnorm(n = 20, mean = x) ## generate response variable plot(y ~ x, pch = 19) ## plot (x,y) pairs
plot(y ~ x, pch = 19)
#c
#According to the result in the plot picture, the result is different.
#d
#The R will return the same value for each set.seed(value). If we need to get the results to be reproducible, set the random seed is valuable.run the code that appears in slide 20 of the intro_slides.pdf slide deck.
change the seed number in the
set.seed()command from 13 to 14. Then, re-run the code in part a.Is there a difference between the results of parts a and b? If so, describe some of the obvious differences.
Why is it important to set the random seed at the beginning of a simulation?
5. Incorporate images that address the following:
- a screenshot that shows your personal repo in GitHub Enterprise
- a screenshot of the Git terminal (or shell) open within RStudio
- a screenshot of RStudio with the 4 panes basic such that there’s a Git tab in the top right pane, and the files in the repo in the bottom right pane
- the push/pull pop up window of RStudio with the final commit message of your homework submission.
